This Liberty archive design of doodled lines and painted splashes was first printed at Liberty’s Merton Print Works in 1953, and is greatly influenced by the abstract expressionist painting style of the period.
“I was drawn to this print as it reminded me of the patterned curtains in my childhood home in The Hague, chosen by my mother.” – Anna Buruma, Head Archivist
The Archivist’s Edit is curated by our legendary archivist Anna Buruma, the protector and custodian of Liberty’s design history for over 20 years. Encompassing 20 beautiful prints, the capsule collection shines a light into the more unusual and lesser-known corners of Liberty’s archive. Fragile fragments and half-forgotten artworks are regenerated into new designs by the in-house artists, drawing inspiration from Buruma’s favourite periods within the brand’s 145-year timeline as well as from across her own life and history.
